All-Time Career Field Goals Made Leaders

With the graduation of Jake Moody – and his possible drafting this spring – I wanted to take a look back at the top field goal kickers in Michigan history.

1. 69 – Jake Moody (2018-2022)
2. 64 – Garrett Rivas (2003-2006)
3. 63 – Remy Hamilton (1993-1996)
4. 57 – Mike Gillette (1985-1988)
5. 45 – Brendan Gibbons (2010-2013)
6. 42 – Quinn Nordin (2017-2020)
7. 39 – J.D. Carlson (1989-1991)
8. 37 – Kenny Allen (2012-2016)
9. 31 – Ali Haji Sheikh (1979-1982)
10. 29 – Bob Bergeron (1981-1984)

Interestingly – to me, at least – some of the best years in modern Michigan history are not represented here, such as 1997-2002. That was right in the middle of the Lloyd Carr years. Maybe Michigan was too busy scoring touchdowns with Anthony Thomas, David Terrell, etc. to be kicking many field goals.
